A man and woman who died in Coventry have been named as Marian Gheorghe and Vicala Gheorghe.

Police were called to Caludon Road shortly after 5.30am on Friday (5 April) and 52-year-old Marian was confirmed dead at the scene.

Mother-of-six Vicala, aged 49, was taken to hospital with serious injuries, but died a short time later.

The pair were former partners and forensic post mortems will take place this week, to establish the causes of death.

Officers are continuing enquiries into exactly what happened, but at this stage they strongly believe Marian injured Vicala and then himself.

They're offering support to family members during this distressing time.

Anyone with information can contact police via 101 or Live Chat quoting log 469 of 5 April.
